Traveled near and far for the new, the vintage, friends and love. Changed homes, time zones, boyfriends, her mind, her shoes, her hair, but never her love and devotion to New York City,&#8221; Parker wrote, referencing the character she&#8217;s portrayed for over two decades on HBO\u2019s \u201cSex and the City,\u201d \u201cAnd Just Like That\u201d and in two feature films.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/and-just-like-that-te-250801-edc8dd.jpg\" alt=\"and just like that\" height=\"1666\" width=\"2500\"\/>Cynthia Nixon (Miranda), Sarah Jessica Parker (Carrie) and Kristin Davis (Charlotte) in &#8220;And Just Like That&#8230;&#8221;HBO MAX<\/p>\n<p id=\"anchor-1f97f4\" class=\"body-graf\">After noting her Carrie has &#8220;hailed cabs,&#8221; &#8220;ran in heels,&#8221; &#8220;danced with Stanford&#8221; (played by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.today.com\/popculture\/tv\/and-just-like-that-stanford-blatch-ending-willie-garson-death-rcna100433\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">late actor Willie Garson<\/a>) and more, she then shouted out her \u201cSex and the City\u201d co-stars Cynthia Nixon (Miranda), Kim Cattrall (Samantha), Kristin Davis (Charlotte), followed by Sarita Choudhury (Seema) and Nicole Ari Parker (LTW), who both starred on \u201cAnd Just Like That.\u201d <\/p>\n<p id=\"anchor-609655\" class=\"body-graf\">&#8220;Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte, there will never be better friends and what great fortune for Carrie to come to know and love Seema and LTW, most divine new connections,&#8221; she shared.<\/p>\n<p id=\"anchor-53b423\" class=\"body-graf\">Parker also shared what her legendary character has meant to her over the years. <\/p>\n<p id=\"anchor-e00d5f\" class=\"body-graf\">&#8220;Carrie Bradshaw has dominated my professional heartbeat for 27 years.
